Five petroleum terminals in New York and New Jersey remain closed, four weeks after Hurricane Sandy disrupted fuel supplies across the Northeast, the US Department of Energy said Monday.
Still closed are storage facilities owned by: Hess in Bayonne, New Jersey; Citgo in Linden, New Jersey; Motiva in Long Island and Brooklyn, New York; and Phillips 66 in Tremley Point, New Jersey.
A total of 52 terminals along the East Coast have reopened since Sandy, according to DOE.
Last week, Phillips 66 began restarting its 238,000 b/d Bayway refinery in Linden, New Jersey, the agency noted.
Hess resumed normal rates at its 70,000 b/d refinery in Port Reading, New Jersey, the company said Wednesday. The plant makes residual fuel oil and vacuum gasoil.
